How responsible are climbers for each other’s safety? Mountaineers react to manslaughter

There is no formal code of conduct that mountaineers are obliged to follow, but the International Climbing and Mountaineering Federation has an ethics declaration, which says climbers “engage in this activity at their own risk and are responsible for their own safety”. However, it also notes that mountaineers “should be prepared to make compromises in order to balance the needs and abilities of all the group”.
